Our tranny went out of our Plymouth a couple weeks ago

. So we knew that we were going to have to buy another car this month. I really didn't want to because we are broke enough without buying vehicles. His dad took him to W. Quincy yesterday morning to see about a car. He came home with a better vehicle. Lets hope the tranny lasts in this one. Had to pay $300 down on it though. That left us broke! Hell we haven't even been able to make the payment on my laptop yet

! Jay promised that we will get the money from somewhere to pay the payment. My BIL is supposed to be coming over later this afternoon to help Jay get my stereo hooked up and all that. Then I'm going tomorrow morning...or I should say, later this morning (it's 2am) to apply at Levering accross town. It's a nursing home, and I REALLY didn't want to get back into nursing

but ya gotta do what ya gotta do I guess.

Doesn't mean I got to be happy about it...grr.
While Jay was gone yesterday, Alex started complaining about her tooth hurting. I thought, 'here we go'. She wasn't playin around this time. Boy her gums are all swollen and everything. I gave her some numzit and it seemed to help. Jay took us out for pizza and right in the middle of supper she started howling like someone done hit her. She said her tooth was hurting BAD! So we packed it up and went to get her some meds. Got some of those Tylenol melt away things and some more orajel. She hates the stuff but I think she'd rather have it than deal with the pain. So after we got home, she was running back one of the chairs in the living room and tripped over her own feet. Landing on her elbow she doubled over howling

. Of course Jay and I's first reaction is that she broke her arm.

Now 24 hrs later it doesn't look any different other than some slight swelling. She can't extend it. But she CAN move it a little. Too much so and she's howling again. Jay kinda thought she was faking it after awhile, but I know she's not because occasionaly she will forget about it and go to do something in her normal day..then when she extends it to get dressed, coat on, or whatever, she'll start howling and holding her are

. I feel just horrible for her. Poor thing. I'm sure she just sprained it and they wouldn't do anything at the dang doctors for her anyway so no sense hauling her out there. I hope she get better in the next couple days.
I hope I get this job tomorrow. I hate going back to work but it's necessary. Jay called about a house last night as well. We've called about this same house several times and never could catch anybody. Thankfully tonight at least we got an answering machine. Perhaps we'll get a call back on that. I would love to live in this house. It's got a huge back yard and Alex would love THAT part. Of course! LOL! I'll keep ya'll posted! I would love to get into a huge sentimental blog right now, but like I said it's after 2am now and I'm just knocked out

. I promise tomorrow I'll leave a good long blog catching everyone up! I hope ya'll didn't miss me too much!
